My name is Johann, and I’m currently seeking an online space where I can fellowship freely, without fear of being persecuted for saying the wrong thing or expressing differing views.

I’ve noticed that some members here are familiar from other sites.

To be completely honest, I’ve been banned from six online forums so far, usually due to disagreements with administrators and moderators.

I’m a work in progress, and my passion is studying the Scriptures in Koine Greek and Hebrew.

Please let me know if I’m welcomed here.

Welcome to the forum.

May I give two bits of advice.
1. read Romans 14 and take to heart what it means about judging anothers servant. I say this because I've encounter ' experts' in greek and hebrew and they come across as being the only person who understands scripture.

If that is not you, I apologise.

2. be prepared to agree to disagree.

Otherwise again you are welcome.

I welcome you.

I can’t speak for all.

I’m not a scholar-this is simply the way I approach studying the Scriptures... and here’s a helpful link I’ve found.
I’m also quite familiar with the book of Romans.

That’s great. I read the book of Romans with this phrase in mind…

The obedience of faith.

But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
Romans 16:26 KJV

In the first chapter it reads…

By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
Romans 1:5

The rendering in Romans 1 seems to be an another facet of te same principal.


Phrases such as -

The righteousness of God through faith
Justified by faith
The law of faith
Walking according to the Spirit.
(do not) Obey the truth.
by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body
Led by the Spirit.
Obey the Gospel

and more all are connected to this principal called the obedience of faith.


To me the entire book of Romans showcases this law (principle) of faith; the obedience of faith which contextually frames the entire book of Romans.

Maybe we can discuss it.

I have a thread about this if you are interested.
 
Hi Johann!@# and welcome to CF :wave2

We are a diverse group with many ways we view and understand scripture. As long as you read and abide to the Terms of Service (ToS) you should be fine. Looking forward to your input and God bless you.

Then you will repent of your judging other Christians.
 
This isn't typically the kind of discussion I would engage in, but can you point out where I'm judging others? Who Me
Sorry, I apologise.

My excuse is I was reading another post on a different forum and thought I was replying to that post.

I apologise for an unfounded allegation.

No need to apologize--all good.
